Shoepop Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 I would have to send revolver in. I have an 01 FFL on file with them, that made no difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRodriguez Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Hi Mark maybe your not a smooth talker like the rest of us. When I ordered mine, I told them that I'm a hack smith and was going to abuse the hell out of their cyclinder it they would let me have one. Here's the part#9498294980000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoepop Posted January 11, 2006 Author Share Posted January 11, 2006 JR, I told them the same thing! Like I said, they have my FFL on file and I told the guy part of my business is smithing but to no avail. I guess I'm not as smooth as you What do you suggest now my friend?

Shoepop Posted January 12, 2006 Author Share Posted January 12, 2006 Thanks all. With the help of a fine fellow board member I got it handled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
festus1 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 One can always just buy a 325, switch the cylinders and re-sell the 325 with the stainless cylinder implanted. The 325 was more pleasant to shoot with the heavier cyl. than with the Ti. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diehli Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Thanks all. With the help of a fine fellow board member I got it handled. Care to 'splain the goings-on? I know I'd like to know why they don't want to sell stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmoney Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 S&W has always identified certain parts that are "factory install only," these traditionally included things like side plates, yokes, and extractor ratchets--stuff that requires more than the field armorer's expertise to install correctly.

Waltermitty Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 If you are "upgrading" (gaming?) to a Ti cylinder, use your old star/extractor to make it easy. Then all you have to worry about is gap and play. Save the "new" star and your "old" cylinder for another day. But it's really premature for all of you to be changing those wonderful SS cylinders before some of us martyrs suffer the pain of technology development and risk. Really, I'm thinking of all of you.

Shoepop Posted January 14, 2006 Author Share Posted January 14, 2006 300lb, Carmoney got it. SOME at S&W don't think because of capability/liability or both certain parts need to be installed/fitted @ factory. slflr, I had no problem chamfering my 646 40 cylinder with Brownell's tool.

Waltermitty Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Will the Brownell's cylinder chamfer cutter work on a Ti cyl? The Ti has a special finish on it; chamfering will breal that. I haven't chamfered mine and I don't believe it needs it. The Ti cylinders look like they have a chamfer built in. Look at it before you buy a tool.

hopalong Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I too chamfered my 646 ti cylinder with the smaller brownells tool. It seems to work best with lots of lube/coolant and slow speeds. I have not tried a bigger...625/325 cylinder, but if any one wants to buy me one to experiment on..........I will tell you if it works/ not works HOPALONG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoepop Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 I received my Ti cylinder today from S&W. It has a SLIGHT chamfer. Tomorrow it's going to get slightly more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
